All Done!~

With October being Breast Cancer Awareness month, I thought I would use one of Sugar's graphics. Hopefully, it will remind us to do our self examination and bring about awareness for breast cancer.


I got all my journals transferred, except for my photo journal. Doesn't look like my photos transferred well in any of my journals so I didn't see the point. I will redo it at some point and time when I have a few minutes, but don't hold your breath! The one thing I did like better on AOL was the cool way we could display our photos. Wish they would to that here. I still have a few things to figure out, but have settled in quite nicely. The main thing is I have to figure out how to merge my Old Country Living Southern Style with my new one. I had already recreated it over here before I learned they were going to figure out a way to transfer them and it didn't automatically join with my new one. They sent me instructions on how to do it, but I don't understand them. Don't they know I am computer illiterate? Now, if they could figure out a way to transfer AOL pictures to Picasa, everything would be coming up roses! I have saved them to my computer, but sadly it has a virus. I am currently using my work computer until I can get my home PC in the shop. I hope they can retrieve my data like they did before when I thought all was lost. Anyway, I am here and am getting settled in. Hope they will add some of the features here that AOL had to make us feel more at home.

Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!~

Congrats on the transfer...I just finished mine too. Whew!

How did you get the fall background on here? I like how it stays still while the words move. Very cool.

I see that you already know about Picassa... they have some cute options for display. Also check out Photobucket. I'm using one of their free accounts to transfer all of my FTP stuff from Hometown to. They also offer some interesting ways to use your pictures. I'm going to start using that Flickr account I've had laying around for a couple of years for my still pics and there are some interesting things you can do over there also. Eh, I think we are going to find this a MUCH better venue than AOL Journals in the end... it's just the learning curve ;p If there is anything I can help with, just ask!

Glad you got most of your things transferred. I only got one to go thru. My big one won't. But I'll keep trying. I'm handcopying some of the entries though that I don't want to lose. I'm half way thru 5 years.

CHRISTmas Miracles Do Happen!~

Our family, tonight, was the recipient of a CHRISTmas Miracle. We were watching TV, the story of Mark David Chapman, the man who shot John Lennon, when we received a knock on our door. It was two of my nephews and a great nephew with two HUGE boxes. I asked them what they were doing, they said, "Delivering your CHRISTmas." It was so unexpected, I didn't know what to say. Nobody really knows the extent of how bad things have been for us lately. We have lived off of boxed mac and cheese mixed with tuna or Rice-A-Roni mixed with a small can of chicken. Some nights, we might have pasta, but without the meat. We have had egg sandwiches and grilled cheese sandwiches. I have actually lost about 8 pounds, which I needed to lose, but I do not recommend doing it this way. I hugged my nephews and told them thank you. They told us Merry CHRISTmas and left. It was just that quick. When I opened the boxes, there were wrapped gifts. I did not have one gift under our tree for either of

Prayers Needed!~

Tony and his son, Joshua. My brother-in-law, Tony, was in a bad motorcycle accident today. He has multiple injuries and is currently in ICU. Also, I may not be on much for a bit. Am having some health issues of my own. I would ask that you remember me and my family in your prayers as well. Sorry I have been so neglectful of you all lately. I hope to make it up ASAP. Lots of love!~ Susan
